Athanasian Creed (Harley) n. 119

119. He was in a Human from first creation and in a Human from Himself, namely in the whole heaven, which in its complex has relation to one man. But this was not His proprium* because it was in the angelic heaven, but in the Divine Human He is in His proprium. * The Latin word proprium means "what is one's own". Swedenborg uses it in a special sense meaning "what is of the self".
